Windows 10: YourPhone.exe is a Virus or Trojan?

Hi, I've seen this app (YourPhone.exe) running in the background using also my GPU. Is it normal? Berowsing the internet some websites say it is a virus, but I'm not sure it is true as in its info it has Microsoft copyright. Anybody else having this process in the background?


The path to the app is : C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.YourPhone_1.0.20094.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\YourPhone.exe


Thanks

:)

New Trojan that Demands a Ransom

There is a new virus out there discovered by virus hunters known as "Cryzip". The Trojan encrypts your files and then demands a $300 ransom for the decryption password to get your files back. After encrypting the files, the virus leaves a nice step-by-step guide of how to go about paying the ransom off. It's supposedly spread through email Spam, and has successfully evaded anti-virus scanners.
